commit 3c77d513 upstream. This patch presents a fix for the autosuspend feature implementation in sierra usb serial driver for function sierra_send_setup(). Because it is possible to call sierra_send_setup() before sierra_open() or after sierra_close() we added a get/put interface activity to assure that the usb control can happen even when the device is autosuspended.

commit 3c7d76e3 upstream. We create a dummy struct kernel_param on the stack for parsing each array element, but we didn't initialize the flags word. This matters for arrays of type "bool", where the flag indicates if it really is an array of bools or unsigned int (old-style). Reported-by:

commit 65afac7d upstream. e180a6b7 "param: fix charp parameters set via sysfs" fixed the case where charp parameters written via sysfs were freed, leaving drivers accessing random memory. Unfortunately, storing a flag in the kparam struct was a bad idea: it's rodata so setting it causes an oops on some archs. But that's not all: 1) module_param_array() on charp doesn't work reliably, since we use an uninitialized temporary struct kernel_param. 2) there's a fundamental race if a module uses this parameter and then it's changed: they will still access the old, freed, memory. The simplest fix (ie. for 2.6.32) is to never free the memory. This prevents all these problems, at cost of a memory leak. In practice, there are only 18 places where a charp is writable via sysfs, and all are root-only writable. Reported-by:

commit 39acbc12 upstream. In this patch: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=16dc42e018c2868211b4928f20a957c0c216126c the check was added for another driver to already claim the same device on the same bus. But the returned error code was wrong: to modprobe, the -EEXIST means that _this_ driver is already installed. It therefore doesn't produce the needed error message when _another_ driver is trying to register for the same device. Returning -EBUSY fixes the problem. Signed-off-by:

commit 5c36fe3d upstream. As found in <http://bugs.debian.org/550010>, hfsplus is using type u32 rather than sector_t for some sector number calculations. In particular, hfsplus_get_block() does: u32 ablock, dblock, mask; ... map_bh(bh_result, sb, (dblock << HFSPLUS_SB(sb).fs_shift) + HFSPLUS_SB(sb).blockoffset + (iblock & mask)); I am not confident that I can find and fix all cases where a sector number may be truncated. For now, avoid data loss by refusing to mount HFS+ volumes with more than 2^32 sectors (2TB). [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix 32 and 64-bit issues] Signed-off-by:

commit 6d45d93e upstream. Avoid a race causing corruption when snapshots of the same origin have different chunk sizes by sorting the internal list of snapshots by chunk size, largest first. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=182659 For example, let's have two snapshots with different chunk sizes. The first snapshot (1) has small chunk size and the second snapshot (2) has large chunk size. Let's have chunks A, B, C in these snapshots: snapshot1: ====A==== ====B==== snapshot2: ==========C========== (Chunk size is a power of 2. Chunks are aligned.) A write to the origin at a position within A and C comes along. It triggers reallocation of A, then reallocation of C and links them together using A as the 'primary' exception. Then another write to the origin comes along at a position within B and C. It creates pending exception for B. C already has a reallocation in progress and it already has a primary exception (A), so nothing is done to it: B and C are not linked. If the reallocation of B finishes before the reallocation of C, because there is no link with the pending exception for C it does not know to wait for it and, the second write is dispatched to the origin and causes data corruption in the chunk C in snapshot2. To avoid this situation, we maintain snapshots sorted in descending order of chunk size. This leads to a guaranteed ordering on the links between the pending exceptions and avoids the problem explained above - both A and B now get linked to C. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 09d3f3f0 ] Many years ago when this driver was written, it had a use, but these days it's nothing but trouble and distributions should not enable it in any situation. Pretty much every console device a sparc machine could see has a bonafide real driver, making the PROM console hack unnecessary. If any new device shows up, we should write a driver instead of depending upon this crutch to save us. We've been able to take care of this even when no chip documentation exists (sunxvr500, sunxvr2500) so there are no excuses. Signed-off-by:

revert commit 58a09b38 ("[libata] ahci: Restore SB600 SATA controller 64 bit DMA") Upstream commit 58a09b38 does nearly the same thing but this patch is simplified for 2.6.31 Disables 64-bit DMA for _all_ boards, unlike 2.6.32 which adds a whitelist. (The whitelist function requires a fairly large patch that touches unrelated code.) Doesn't revert the DMI part as other backported patches might need the exported symbol.

commit 11df6ddd upstream. The requeue_pi path doesn't use unqueue_me() (and the racy lock_ptr == NULL test) nor does it use the wake_list of futex_wake() which where the reason for commit 41890f24 (futex: Handle spurious wake up) See debugging discussing on LKML Message-ID: <4AD4080C.20703@us.ibm.com> The changes in this fix to the wait_requeue_pi path were considered to be a likely unecessary, but harmless safety net. But it turns out that due to the fact that for unknown $@#!*( reasons EWOULDBLOCK is defined as EAGAIN we built an endless loop in the code path which returns correctly EWOULDBLOCK. Spurious wakeups in wait_requeue_pi code path are unlikely so we do the easy solution and return EWOULDBLOCK^WEAGAIN to user space and let it deal with the spurious wakeup.

commit 89061d3d upstream. When requeuing tasks from one futex to another, the reference held by the requeued task to the original futex location needs to be dropped eventually. Dropping the reference may ultimately lead to a call to "iput_final" and subsequently call into filesystem- specific code - which may be non-atomic. It is therefore safer to defer this drop operation until after the futex_hash_bucket spinlock has been dropped. Originally-From: Helge Bahmann <hcb@chaoticmind.net> Signed-off-by:

commit 2bc87203 upstream. If userspace tries to perform a requeue_pi on a non-requeue_pi waiter, it will find the futex_q->requeue_pi_key to be NULL and OOPS. Check for NULL in match_futex() instead of doing explicit NULL pointer checks on all call sites. While match_futex(NULL, NULL) returning false is a little odd, it's still correct as we expect valid key references. Signed-off-by:

commit d58e6576 upstream. The futex code does not handle spurious wake up in futex_wait and futex_wait_requeue_pi. The code assumes that any wake up which was not caused by futex_wake / requeue or by a timeout was caused by a signal wake up and returns one of the syscall restart error codes. In case of a spurious wake up the signal delivery code which deals with the restart error codes is not invoked and we return that error code to user space. That causes applications which actually check the return codes to fail. Blaise reported that on preempt-rt a python test program run into a exception trap. -rt exposed that due to a built in spurious wake up accelerator :) Solve this by checking signal_pending(current) in the wake up path and handle the spurious wake up case w/o returning to user space.

commit 4f7c2874 upstream. Commit 842faa6c fixed error handling during attach by not committing detected device class to dev->class while attaching a new device. However, this change missed the PMP class check in the configuration loop causing a new PMP device to go through ata_dev_configure() as if it were an ATA or ATAPI device. As PMP device doesn't have a regular IDENTIFY data, this makes ata_dev_configure() tries to configure a PMP device using an invalid data. For the most part, it wasn't too harmful and went unnoticed but this ends up clearing dev->flags which may have ATA_DFLAG_AN set by sata_pmp_attach(). This means that SATA_PMP_FEAT_NOTIFY ends up being disabled on PMPs and on PMPs which honor the flag breaks hotplug support. This problem was discovered and reported by Ethan Hsiao. Signed-off-by:

commit f4b31db9 upstream. When an internal command fails, it should be failed directly without invoking EH. In the original implemetation, this was accomplished by letting internal command bypass failure handling in ata_qc_complete(). However, later changes added post-successful-completion handling to that code path and the success path is no longer adequate as internal command failure path. One of the visible problems is that internal command failure due to timeout or other freeze conditions would spuriously trigger WARN_ON_ONCE() in the success path. This patch updates failure path such that internal command failure handling is contained there. Signed-off-by:
